Doubt regarding cscope
 

Hi,
I am not sure if this is the right place for this type of doubt.
Still, I will go ahead :)

I use cscope extensively.
I first create a source files path list by 'find . -name *.c > cscope.files'
Then I use cscope -i cscope.files
A cscope.out file gets created. However I do not know how to reuse that file for further invocations of cscope.
Hence everytime I have to use a "cscope -i cscope.files"
which takes a long time to build the symbol database.

Is there any way to use the cscope.out that was built the first time cscope.out was invoked?

if no files have been updated you can use cscope -d
if files have been updated use cscope This will update the cross references for files which have changed
if your cscope.out is in some other directory then use cscope -f pathToCscope.out
